How good are these eastern HW

[AREALFIGHTER]

How good are these guys actually In their last fights sultan chagaev and povektin stepped up and perfromed very well. I think however that they need to get a couple more names under their belts before people go crazy. I was very impressed with povetkins win over friday he is no slouch in only his 7th pro fight thats big time. Now who do you guys think is the best or going to climb the hieghest tell me what you think of these guys and what you like dislike about them. NOTE I did not put boytsov on the list because he has not beaten anyone yet although his name is known.

I saw Povetkins win over Friday. Yeah, he dominated him throughout, but he still got hit too much. His head stays in the same spot after he punches sometimes, which is strange for a fighter with such a illustrious amateur career. And I didn't see real dominant power. And he seemed a little stiff and upright.

But he looked strong, and definitely has nice hands, nice footwork, nice combos. He needs to get with an American trainer who can show him some defense and some head-movement, though. I think as of right now, half of the top 10 HW's would KO him. But that may change in another year or two as a professional if he ups his defense.

I think all are going to do well, in sultans case he already is. I feel Chavaev and Povetkin will do better as they are younger. All have a really good power, especially Chavaev.

I heard Chaveav actually lost to Krasniqi in amateurs, they were 1-1.

What I really like about these guys is not just their natural skill, but their fun factor. I cant say for sure about Povektin, but Sultan and definatly Chaveav are really entertaining in the ring. Good chance of a KO with these guys. I also respect Sultans calling out of Peter, shows he has balls. Theres a good chance we will see this fight too as they are on the same level. Both are high hopes for the HW division, one side will be upsetted.

Boytsov has plenty of time to make a name for himself, he already has the most impressive amatuer career ive seen, and hes only 20. I think hes at 100% KO aswell, with 9 KOs in round 1, 3 in round 2, and one in round 6.

The fact that all the young prospects and 3 of the beltholders are eastern euro should tell you how good they are DIP****!

I agree Povetkin needs to work on his defense. I think he is a conservative figher when it comes to power shots and picks his power punches.
